Why choose the Connect license for SquaredUp SCOM dashboards?

Every enterprise has its arsenal of tech tools to tackle an array of different challenges. If you’re using SquaredUp for SCOM, you already have the best dashboard for SCOM data – but what if you could track all the metrics from all your tools on a single dashboard?

Dashboard Server: Working with the Elasticsearch Tile

I’ll come clean and admit it – this part of the series will be a bit interesting given the fact that I know very little about Elasticsearch. So really, this is an honest test of the question – “can I still build something good with Dashboard Server even if I only have nominal knowledge of the tool where the data is sourced from?”
